FBO Profile: Delta Jet Center
An airline-owned FBO makes a name for itself in Cincinnati.


While commercial aviation and private aviation often find themselves at odds, at Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG) they form a kind of synergy in the form of the Delta Jet Center, the lone aviation services provider on the field. Yes, that Delta, the oldest continually operating airline in the U.S. The company acquired the then newly built, four-and-a-half-acre FBO and a private jet charter operation when it completed its purchase of Comair in 1999, and has been operating it ever since. For most of its existence, the location was viewed largely by the parent company as a part of the Delta Private Jets infrastructure, a base of operations for the now 66-aircraft charter fleet and the company’s 450 personnel that happened to sell aviation fuel.
